A Wonderful Short Story By Alan Moore And Rick Veitch You Can Buy For 99 Cents Today
DC Comics is having a 99 cent "V For Vendetta" sale on ComiXology today. Which means all the individual issues of V For Vendetta are 99 cents each, but so are selected issues of the ABC line, like Promethea, Top Ten, Swamp Thing, Terra Obscura, Voodoo and Green Lantern written by Alan Moore.
But that also includes Tomorrow Stories. Specifically Tomorrow Stories #2. Which contains a short Greyshirt story, "How Things Work Out" by Alan Moore and Rick Veitch that pastiches The Spirit work by Will Eisner. Set in a tenement building, it uses the structure of the building as the page of panels, each floor of the building becomes a different decade. The art style, the lettering, changes from decade to decade, the comic can be read vertically or horizontally, with differently designed panel-to-panel reading experiences for each.
It's one of my favourite works by either Moore and Veitch. And handily ComiXology gives us the first pages to preview. It's well worth the ninety nine cents to see how it concludes…
